“These events are very necessary to connect industry leaders with thought leaders around the world…[Data Summit is] an excellent exposure to what is going on. The collaborations that are formed and the relationships that are formed through activities by The Data Lab are vital.”

“What I love about DataFest is that it’s utterly authentic – driven by people who want data and AI to be put to the best possible use, attended by those who want to connect with others on this mission. It is also shedloads of fun.”

Maggie Philbin OBE

“Data-driven innovation has the potential to deliver great benefits to Scottish businesses and our economy more widely. Scotland has a highly skilled workforce with great strengths in areas such as data and digital, and investors are increasingly seeing us as an attractive location for growing their business. I’m very pleased that DataFest is bringing these opportunities to people across the country and bringing an international audience to Edinburgh for another successful Data Summit”
